The difficulty is not SO much to make
money as to save it. Resolve to saue some
thing. Frugality and foresight will do more
than good luck in laying the foundation of
a prosperous career. Frese's Hamburg Tea
is the best family medicine ever introduced,
and is the universal remedy in the well-reg-
ulated nursery. Its timely use has saved
many a doctors bill.

Southern Girls Tongues.

''It is fact that young ladies in the
various communities have many ways
of handling their tongues, and in some
instances unanimity makes q certain
movement, if not lex loci at least
characteristic People who have sat
next to Wesleyan College girls at
musicale will bear witness to the fact
that their tongue movement is never
i'll extension but yibratory, like the
concert of grenadier blackbirds late
in the fall. On the other hand, the
Atlanta girl talks fast, and as she
gasps for breath in the periods where
she fears interruption, thrusts her
tongue out to its full length and begins
the next sentence with and, which is
thrown in as q claim upon your atten-
ton. The dear little Savannah girl
rattles away like infantry in pitched
battle, and intersperses her conversa-
ton with laughter, during which she
throws her head backward as if to
have her tonsils examined, and lets the
musical member sag in its socket.
The girls of Augusta and Albany are
very much alike in many things;
among others, in the way they conceal
their tongues. They smile and con
verse gently, and the ripple of their
laughter is like the sound of brook
running on pebbles hid under ferns
and clinging willows, but not a glimpse
of woman's weapon do they permit.
The Augusta and Albany girls marry
very young.
1.-The Macon girl chews gum and
gives brief exhibitions of the pink end
of her dainty tongue. The member
is worn in the shape of French roll
while she masticates the unresisting,
but indestructible quid, and as she Ia
| bors thus, concentric semi-circles in
close her mouth like brackets around
an Interpolation, and she is tor the
time being voiceless, for the 'gulick,
quick, gulick,' that is borne to the ear
is nota voice note, but merely suction
caused by the teeth entering and leav-
ing the chewing gum. Anybody who
has heard a COW walk through mud
hole will understand the sound at
tempted in the description. 1t is said
that the Macon girl before she took to
gum was the sweetest little creature in
the world, and no one ever thought
enough about her tongue after catching
sight of her lips and eyes to notice
what she did with it. Perhaps she will
reform some day. We shall see."

Ben: Perley Poore's Wheeibarrow.

Among the innumerable little things
in which he exhibited pardonable pride
is a common wheelbarrow upon which
he wheeled a barrel of apples of his
own raising from Indian Hill Farm to
Boston, distance of thirty-siX and a
half miles, in payment of a wager
made during the heated Presidential
campaign of 1856. twas an immense
task, but faithfully performed, and
was cheered by music, speeches and
flowers, aud at the journeys end the
apples were sold for a very round
sum. The Major enjoyed telling how
the winner of the bet offered to relent,
how the people all along the road
gibed and cheered him, how willing
the farmers were to carry the pro
cession, but how persistentiy he re-
fused. This performance whirled
Major Poore into prominence and pub
lie favor. which he never lost.-Phst-
